lookin' for a source to understand/learn EDI messages at spanish

Question

Well, does anybody know about an good source to learn about EDI messages? (by example the message 856 (ASN)). I would like a source in spanish language, but english it's acceptable too, something for dummys,blog,book/ebook,documentation,etc... step by step, we're probably starting to work with them in a few months, and we are really lost, we have documentation from our client, but if you know a good source a walk through, where to start, it will be welcome.

I just found the FrameworkEDI www.edidev.co

Any recommendation ? Somebody has worked with it ?

My regards.

I'm confused: you tagged edifact, but you reference an ANSI X12 document (856). Which standard are you working with?

A to Z of EDI:

http://www.amazon.com/EDI-Its-Role-E-Commerce/dp/1882419162/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1341941255&sr=8-2&keywords=EDI+A+to+Z

You can usually get manuals on how to translate the data when you select a translator. Perhaps you are looking for a commercial grade translator product that can help. There are hundreds on the market. Try this: http://liaison.com/products/transform/delta

Download EDI Notepad from Liaison (http://liaison.com/products/integrate/edi-notepad) This tool will help you look at EDI data and understand it.

The EDIFACT wiki might be of some help, since it talks in terms of segments and elements: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDIFACT
